There is no Instinct Q this is the result of what happens when us consumers decide to jump to conclusions this is the phone we all THOUGHT would be the instinct Q thats why months ago I said that the only new Instinct was the HD(a.k.a.S50Samsung M900)...

Full Specs

Anyone where I can find the full specs on the Moment? I want to see how it compares to the Hero since the Moment & the Hero are the two phones I'm looking at to replace my Curve 8330 (unless Sprint gets the Storm 2).

The most important thing is the Moment has a REAL PHYSICAL keyboard. I don't know what the deal/appeal is with these all touch phones, I really don't.

This Moment has standards

"and has Wi-Fi, GPS, a 3.2 megapixel camera with video capture, and stereo Bluetooth."

4 things every phone from this Moment on should have as standards. Anything less then this should not be considered a smartphone.
